An in-depth guide to one of the most respected and ambitious counter-attacking systems in the Ruy Lopez.

The Marshall Attack invites Black to sacrifice a pawn in return for a furious attack on the white king, and at the highest level it has been embraced by world champions and elite grandmasters. David Vigorito clarifies the underlying positional ideas, identifies the key tactical motifs and brings the theory up to date for both colours. He gives detailed coverage of the main lines, explores Black's modern try with 8...d5, and also examines the various Anti-Marshall systems that White can use to sidestep the main battlefield. International Master David Vigorito is a New England chess teacher and prolific author, with several books to his name including Challenging the Nimzo-Indian and Play the Semi-Slav.
